I’ve been fumbling with your heart strings and that’s good enough for me
And if I've rained on one of your hours then I know I must be working.
Try it on for size, my darling, see what a man you could make of me
I will eventually haunt you, or you'll eventually be my queen.
And I’ll be with you through the dark
So that you do not go through the dark alone
Or on your own.
I’ve been down Biloxi Parish and that’s all the same for me
I found that nothing truly matters that you cannot find for free.
I love you more than I can tell you and when you pa** through from this world,
I hope you ask to take me with you or that I won’t have to wait too long.
But until then I’ll be with you through the dark,
Yes, until then I’ll be with you through the dark
And who else can say that about you, baby
Who else can say that about you, now
And who else can take all your blood and your curses
Nobody I’ve seen you hanging around, seen you hanging around.
And all of our heroes were failures or ghosts
Burned out in brilliant explosions alone
And all of the blood and the sweat that they gave
Well, we took it all and we threw it away.
And who else can say that about you, baby
Who else can say that about you, now
And who else can take all your blood and your curses
Nobody I’ve seen you hanging around.
And who else can say that about you, baby
Who else can say that about you, now
And who else can take all your blood and your curses
Nobody I’ve seen you hanging around, seen you hanging around.
